We have heard quite a bit about the HTC One A9 a.k.a Aero, and today, thanks to @evleaks, we get to see the phone in press renders that show off the bunch of colors it will be available in.
While HTC has been known for innovating with the designs of their smartphones, it looks like they took inspiration from Apple this time around. From the rear, the Aero closely resembles the iPhone 6, and while the front has a distinct design, it looks ugly due to the huge top and bottom bezels.

The HTC One A9 (Aero) is not going to be a new flagship handset from the struggling Taiwanese OEM. Instead, the device is a premium mid-range smartphone that will boast of a 5-inch AMOLED screen, a Snapdragon 617 chipset, 2GB RAM, a 13MP rear shooter with OIS, a 4MP front shooter, and come with a 2,150mAh battery. The handset will also come with a fingerprint scanner and a microSD card slot.
On the software front, the A9 is expected to be the first Android smartphone to run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box with Sense 7 on top of it. HTC is expected to unveil the One A9 later this month or in the first week of October.
What do you think about this upcoming premium mid-range smartphone from HTC?
